Carlton players Lachie Cowan and Will Hayward hospitalised
Carlton Football Club players Lachie Cowan and Will Hayward were hospitalised on Sunday morning following two separate incidents. The club confirmed both players have since been discharged.
According to club statements, Cowan underwent medical treatment and observation before being released. Hayward admitted himself to the hospital to receive stitches for a minor cut to his head sustained during a fall. The club stated that its priority is the wellbeing of both players and that they remain in regular contact.
Reports regarding the incidents included speculation about recreational drug use and a party at a player's residence.
